Abstract:
Examples of resistive digital-to-analog converter (RDAC) circuits are provided herein. RDAC circuits may provide an analog output signal derived from an n-bit digital input signal. In one example, an RDAC circuit may include a plurality of resistive circuit branches. Each resistive circuit branch may be arranged in a pull up/pull down network configuration. For example, an RDAC circuit may include a plurality of resistive circuit branches positioned in parallel. In an example, each of the plurality of resistive circuit branches may include a first inverter circuit, a second inverter circuit, and a resistive component. The RDAC circuit may include an output node for providing the analog output signal. Additionally, methods are provided for converting an analog output signal derived from an n-bit digital input signal.
